You could do a lot worse rolf. I have tried several different methods of downloading and found Torrents the best. One doesn't have to take the first offering, and I have found it better to wait a couple of days until the better, more qualified guys start seeding.
You can almost guarantee that I have seen the latest film before it gets even its first screening in the UK.
The Grandkids think I'm the cats whiskers when they visit and I let them watch the latest cartoon/film or whatever. :D

I'm using Shadow's Experimental version, it seems to work pretty good for me so why change it? I can throw my computer into a turmoil by just switching on.

I liked the original "Star Treks" best my friend, but during an 'accident recovery' period, I started watching "Blakes 7", and got hooked - these things happen when you break an arm M8 ..

Special mention of course for a few of the "Space 1999" series, especially the backwards/forwards in time episode, where that guy who advertised houses from a helicopter, rode around in a small kiddy car ..

Procode ..

No offence intended of course for many of those not mentioned, I've enjoyed most of them - "Red Dwarf" especially .. ;)

Firefly, currently enjoying endless repeats on Sci-Fi channel was my fave and is missing from the list.

I was gutted when that announcement came out of the blue "that was the last ever episode of Firefly...." WHY ?

Have added it Wossname, I think the reason why it wasn't put in the poll, was that it hadn't started when we first put the poll up and of course it didn't last long.

Remember though, even Star Trek was cancelled after the first series. :)

Yes, but they go round and round 'til you're sick of the sight of it. Starts again every 13 days or so.

I've been reading the Dreambox idiots guide. I think that's where my future lies ....

Wot about 'The Man From Atlantis', Patrick Duffy with webbed hands n feet! At least the whole series wasn't a "Dream"!!!!

Just thought of another 'The Six Million Dollar Man' if it had been on list would have voted for that.

I voted for Logans Run, I was young at the time, thought 30 was a long way off..........:eek: and it aint been on since.

Added them sprog, weren't added originally, because nobody thought of them.

It'll take time Sprog, the poll has been running now for 2 years and still only has just over 300 posts. :)

with 27% of the votes overall, it looks as though Star Trek, in it various forms is the most popular.

and i would have to agree, when choosing i was stuck trying to decide which ST series i liked most?? i ended up choosing next gen, but it was a close call :)

Well I have a few faves but could only vote on one so it had to be Stargate series, including the new stargate atlantis...

I see with the new series launch, the Stargate vote is starting to creep up. :)
